Interactive PDF Not Working On Other Computers

Hi,
I created an interactive pdf from an Indesign file on my personal computer. I put the file on another computer but it doesn't work? What could be the problem?
Thank you,
Kristie

I'm trying to view the PDF on a MacIntosh. I created the PDF file on a PC
(Windows Vista) and used Indesign 5.5. I went to File, Export and selected
Interactive PDF as the file type. I accepted the other defaults. Also, I created
three bookmarks in the Indesign document. The first two work but the third one
doesn't and It's always the last bookmark I click on that fails to work. The
bookmarks work fine in the Indesign document.

Simple Interactive PDF not working

Once again I'm stumped. I'm attampting to create a simple slide show which animates from one image to the next with just a previous and next button. The project seems to work fine when using the preview mode within InDesign CS6 (8.0.1), but when I export the document it will not work.
When I open the interactive PDF in Acrobat and attempt to click on the next and previous buttons, an icon appears of a Hand with a black down arrow on the hand?
Any thoughts as to what I might be doing wrong?
Thanks.

Simple slideshow? How?
My guess is you're using MSOs which are unsupported in PDF.

Retaining Two-Page Scrolling when Exporting to Interactive PDF Not Working

I'm currently trying to export from InDesign a continuous facing page PDF.
My document has four pages and is set up as pages, not spreads.
Left page is even, right is odd. Looks fine in InDesign.
I need to do Interactive due to hyperlinks, etc.
I choose Export and choose Interactive PDF
My settings are All, Pages, Fit Visible, Two-Up Continuous Facing
When it finishes and opens in Acrobat it's starting as a right, cover page. Even if I go to Two Page Scrolling/Viewing in Acrobat it shows my left-hand page starting on the right.
Is there something in Acrobat that isn't set up correctly? I'm using Adobe Cloud so latest version of all software. Thank you in advance! It's driving me crazy as it's always worked in the past.

Try turning on this setting in Acrobat:
View > Page Display > Show Cover Page in Two Page View

Interactive PDF not working. Please help.

Hi,
Can anyone help me please?
I've created a website prototype with just two pages (home and lower page). For the relevant navigation I have created two links and and rollover states to demonstrate interactivity. I've set this up using slices and swap image behaviours. In preview mode, everything works as it should, but when I export to PDF and view, only the links work, not the hover state changes.
Can anyone help me solve this issue as, for me, this is a major reason why I was trialing Fireworks in the first place as my chosen tool for web design. It means the difference between me continuing with Fireworks or reverting to Photoshop for protype creation.
Thanks again for any advice you can offer
Greg

Sorry, I just wanted to be sure anyone else reading the thread didn't latch onto my suggestion in the wrong manner.
Hotspots do not support rollovers, even in Fireworks. Only slices support rollovers. Regardless of the web object used, it must indeed be a true rectangle (not a polygon that looks like a rectangle). Acorbat doesn't support polygon or elliptical web objects. I think they're completely ignored in the export process.
What you probably saw was Acrobat's capability to show a hot area. This is not to be confused with a swapped image from within the Fireworks document.

Reader extended rights in interactive PDF not available on some computers

I created multiple interactive forms using Adobe Acrobat Pro X. Three of them seem to work fine, but the fourth is giving trouble. When opening the document, some people get the following message (it's translated from Dutch, so in English it might be slightly different):
"In this document Reader Extended rights for Adobe Reader are activated. The document is changed since it was created and the reader extended rights are not available anymore. Contact the author for the original version of the document."
I have Adobe Acrobat, so I tried to open the document on a different laptop with Adobe Reader 11.0.0 and Windows 8. I got the previous mentioned message, but other people opening the document with Adobe Reader 11.0.0. and Windows 8 don't. The problem is not the version of Adobe Reader or the Operating system, as not everyone with Reader 11 or Windows 8 has this problem. Furthermore, this problem does not exist for three of the four documents.
I tried deleting recreating the form and saving it again with 'Reader extended rights'. It keeps giving the same error. Why is this one document giving problems for only some of the users? Can anyone please help me?

OK, now my brain is really scrambled. I can rule out the problem of it being too old a version of reader, and probably a third party reader, because I checked on an older system we have here at work, and it has Adobe Reader 9 installed, and for some reason that is the only computer where the buttons do not appear. I can not figure out what would make that system so different from the rest to make that happen. Any one have any other ideas?
thanks again

Interactive pdf not working

I have InDesign CC 2014 and I'm a novice at this. I read a lot and created a file that just turns the page. I saved it as a SWF file and had it create an html. The "use in document" was checked for the page curl. When I opened the html or pdf file neither does the page curl. The html file tells me to add Flash to my computer. I have it there. I tried to open the file on three different machines, two with Windows 8 and one with Windows 7.
Could anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

I created the file in InDesign, exported it as a swf with the html option checked. It automatically opened in Internet Explorer and it works there. When I closed the html file and tried to open it again, I got a message that I needed to get Flash. And the link takes me to the Flash download screen. I didn't download it. It's already on the machine. I checked the Active-x to make sure it was active and that made the html file work.
Thanks for your help.

Interactive buttons not working on interactive pdf when the Indesign links are set correctly

Hi all,
I have one Indesign CS6 manual containing 17 files, 126 pages. This has been set to a book file.
This has been translated into 14 languages and now we are having problems creating the interactive pdfs.
After fixing the broken interactive buttons within the Indd files, we are finding that when we create the interactive pdfs, not all interactive button links work. When we recreate the same langauge interactive pdf we are finding that the buttons that were not working the 1st time, are now working, and some buttons that were working, are now not working.
Is there a bug somewhere.
Any idea why the interactive buttons work one minute and then not the next, and vice versa.
Any idea how we can fix.
I’m using Indesign CS6 and Acrobat 9 Pro.
Thanks in advance.

Hi LoriAUC,
Thanks for this. Very much appreciated.
I have asked sagar-khanna from the other discussion is he knows more about the broken links etc.
Thanks again.
Julie :-)

Some PDFs not working in Preview. Mac created PDFS work but windows created PDFS dont

Some PDFs not working in Preview. I installed adobe reader and then deleted it because the software was aweful and PDFs have been haveing issues ever since. I can open up PDFs created on my Mac in preview just fine...
But when I try and open a PDF created on a windows computer it says:
"Please wait...

I am not sure why where the PDF was created would make a difference but couldnt help but notice that was the difference between the PDF files that work and the ones that give that message. I can view the PDFs on a windows computer just fine and never had issues untill adobe, it seems to have messed up PDFs on my Mac and I am so frustrated with them. I have searched my computer for any remaining adobe files, deleted them and restarted my computer but I am still getting this message.

Uninstall Adobe Reader's plug-in.
Remove the following two files from /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/:

CS4 "Save as Adobe PDF" not working in Mountain Lion

CS4 Save as Adobe PDF not working in Mountain Lion
Just bought a new Mac with mountain lion, installed CS4 design premium twice trying to fix this. When you go to "print" then "Save as Adobe PDF" the process fails with a pop-up saying "An error occurred while saving the PDF file". I can still do the standard "Save as PDF" - but that usually results in a file size 10x larger than Save as Adobe PDF so it won't work for me; I need the small file sizes of Save as Adobe PDF.
When I go to Help > Repair Acrobat Installation it seems to be recognizing a repair needed with Adobe PDF Printer (see screenshot below); but when I go through the repair nothing changes it still won't work.
Any help is much appreciated!

"Save As Adobe PDF" works fine in Snow Leopard.
Thanks for the link, but this is no help - I already have "Save As Adobe PDF" on the menu - the problem is when I click that it errors out...
I just think its sad that Adobe charges people $2000 and provides zero support for future updates; when I buy an iMac for half that amount of money or an iPhone I get operating system support and bug fix downloads to deal with the latest internet advances for years to come - but Adobe apparently takes your money and says sayonara! Is it really that hard to provide updates on $2000 worth of software for say 24 months??

Interactive notifications not working in my 5s

uupdated my iphone yesterday but after update my interactive notifications not working

Have you restarted your iPhone? http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1702
Restart the app
Close the app and open it again.
Restart your device
Turn the device off and on.
If that does not help, reinstall iPhoto - that fixed the same problem for me, but that will delete the iPhoto library, so your journals and slideshows will be lost. You may want to make a backup of your iPhone before you try that.
Reinstall the app
Remove the app from your device and reinstall it. Remember that deleting an app also deletes its data.
Delete the app.
Press the Home button.
Go to the App Store and download the app again.
Wait for the app to download, then open it from the Home screen.
If the download stops, you can resume it.
If even reinstalling iPhoto does not help, restore your iPhone: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3281

Why is exporting to PDF not working?

Why is exporting to PDF not working?

Dear Claudio,
I know it wasn't much to go on but I got your attention!
I work for a charity and use a program called "Donor Perfect".
It has a feature that when you generate a report it gives you the option to export to MSWord, Excel, and PDF.
Below is the step by step description of what happens.
After log on ......
     1. Click on Reports
     2. Listings
     3. Report Category(any)
     4. Select Record type(any)
     5. Select report options (any selection filter that fits or Build a filter) and sort order(any)
     6. Enter title (accordingly)
     7. Click on Preview
     8. When next screen opens with report visible - in "Report Print preview" line above report choose PDF icon
     9. Export to PDF window opens
     10. click on Page range-ALL
     11. What to print-All pages in Range
     12. Save as C:\DPW32\dpsumm.pdf
     13. collate
     14. number of copies(1)
     15. Click on "Screen"
     16. Click on "Display Conversion Status"
     17. Then "OK"
     18. After conversion status reaches "100%" nothing happens -screen does not change!
Then I minimize DP screen and I go to Start menu
     1. Click on Start
     2. Then "My Computer"
     3. Local Disk "C"
     4. Dpw32
     5. Look for "dpsumm" file with today's date
     6. Size of file says 0 KB and that's it!!!!
In previous versions of DP (8 and 9)
the PDF would open on the screen as soon as the Step 18 was finished, then I could save it with an identifying name to a different folder and use it as an attachment that a Donor could receive by e-mail.
I hope I can get back to that because now I have to convert to "Word" (Which takes a long time)then from that I have to create PDF from Acrobat. too many steps ..... if I have 20-30 reports it's too cumbersome.
Waiting for your suggestions,

Flash Player interactive buttons not working

I have been having this issue for months as far as I can tell. Multiple websites have this problem where I click on a button (not a link) such as a "play" or "share" button and nothing happens. These same buttons work on other computers however. I went to Apple support for help and they told me it was a Flash issue, and led me to your contact page.
Example websites with problems:
Searching For Sound - I cannot play the video, I click play and nothing happens
* Cafe del Mar Chillout Mix May 2014 * by DJ.Jurag | Mixcloud - I cannot press play, share, repost, like, or add. Nothing happens when I click these buttons
I have tried restarting my computer, reinstalling flash, changing plug-in permissions to "allow", and trying a new browser to no avail.
I have submitted this as a bug on your bugbase. The bug # is 3863474 which you can find here, with my computer specs: Bug#3863474 - Flash Player Play Buttons (and other buttons) unresponsive
I own a Macbook Pro Retina which I bought this summer (2014), late 2013 model with 10.9.5, 16GB RAM, 2.6 Ghz Intel Core i7, NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M 2048 MB, 1TB Solid State
Please help.

I'm assuming you're using Safari.
Do you have the same issue with Google Chrome? http://www.google.com/chrome/
It uses a significantly different version of Flash Player from the one shared by Safari and FIrefox. It would also be interesting to know if the issue happens both in Safari and Firefox.

Captivate 7 | Interaction template | Not working on tablets

Hello,
I have a problem with the interation templates provided in the Captivate 7.
Opening a blank project, I have insert a tab interactive template (ref screenshot below) from the option Insert > Interaction. After publishing project to HTML 5 the output is working fine on iPad. Later for the same project I have inserted some background and text within the interaction template and published again to HTML 5 and checked the output in the iPad and the interactions were not working as previously.
